[1] And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, [2] “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘I am יהוה your Elohim. [3] ‘Do not do as they do in the land of Mitsrayim, where you dwelt. And do not do as they do in the land of Kena‛an, where I am bringing you, and do not walk in their laws.
I am יהוה. [7] ‘The nakedness of your father or the nakedness of your mother you do not uncover. She is your mother, you do not uncover her nakedness. [8] ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife you do not uncover, it is your father’s nakedness.
[9] ‘The nakedness of your sister, the daughter of your father, or the daughter of your mother, whether born at home or elsewhere, their nakedness you do not uncover. [10] ‘The nakedness of your son’s daughter or your daughter’s daughter, their nakedness you do not uncover, for theirs is your own nakedness.
[11] ‘The nakedness of your father’s wife’s daughter, brought forth by your father, she is your sister, you do not uncover her nakedness. [12] ‘The nakedness of your father’s sister you do not uncover, she is your father’s flesh.
[13] ‘The nakedness of your mother’s sister you do not uncover, for she is your mother’s flesh. [14] ‘The nakedness of your father’s brother you do not uncover, you do not approach his wife, she is your aunt.
[15] ‘The nakedness of your daughter-in-law you do not uncover, she is your son’s wife, you do not uncover her nakedness. [16] ‘The nakedness of your brother’s wife you do not uncover, it is your brother’s nakedness.
[17] ‘The nakedness of a woman and her daughter you do not uncover, nor do you take her son’s daughter or her daughter’s daughter, to uncover her nakedness. They are her relatives – it is wickedness.
[18] ‘And do not take a woman as a rival to her sister, to uncover her nakedness while the other is alive. [19] ‘And do not approach a woman to uncover her nakedness in her monthly separation of uncleanness.
[20] ‘And do not have intercourse with the wife of your neighbour, to defile yourself with her. [21] ‘And do not give any of your offspring to pass through to Moleḵ. And do not profane the Name of your Elohim. I am יהוה. [22] ‘And do not lie with a male as with a woman, it is an abomination.
[23] ‘And do not have intercourse with any beast, to defile yourself with it. And a woman does not stand before a beast to mate with it, it is a perversion. [24] ‘Do not defile yourselves with all these, for by all these the nations are defiled, which I am driving out before you.
[25] ‘Thus the land became defiled, therefore I punished it for its crookedness, and the land vomited out its inhabitants. [26] ‘But you, you shall guard My laws and My right-rulings, and not do any of these abominations, the native nor stranger who sojourns among you,
[27] because the men of the land who were before you have done all these abominations, and thus the land became defiled, [28] ‘So let not the land vomit you out for defiling it, as it vomited out the nations that were before you.
[29] ‘For whoever does any of these abominations, those beings who do them shall be cut off from among their people. [30] ‘And you shall guard My Charge, so as not to do any of these abominable laws which were done before you, so as not to defile yourselves by them. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ”
